Word vomit, failure, plans to do better?

Hello!
I am still alive.
I told my lovely sister we should each take a day and blog here once a week on that day.
I was supposed to last Friday...then I was like oh well I will do it Monday...
and here we are on Tuesday.
Let's just hope this is not a huge red flag saying there is no way I will be able to blog once a week!
I mean that's not even a hard thing to accomplish but Friday was a rough day and Mondays re Mondays so I should have never thought that would happen...anyways
I am doing pretty shit with all my goals, this winter was a big dumb bitch!
It's super hard to want to do anything when it's cold and gross I mean aside from going out to eat a lot and ordering pizza every night so that right there blew all fitness and money goals, oh well..
I am not that mad about it, there doesn't seem to be any point in beating myself up over it...
(I say that now but come find me on a bad day)

Basically where I stand now is trying little by list to get me and Joe into a better healthier situation
what that means is:
moving
(saving money, finding a place, organizing our lives)
getting healthy
(Getting Joe to the doc, eating good, working out, smoking and drinking less)

That's it, 2 things that's all I am really working for right now, because I sorta realized that all the other goals or whatever you want to call them fit in as things I need to do to make the 2 big ones happen and all the rest once we are more comfortable, and healthy will fall into place.
(I hope)
So far I haven't done too much to work towards this but, what I have done is:
-make a budget, 
well 2 of them one for our current living situation 
and one that shows what we can afford if we move
-print out a calender for the next few months
- Joe got a doctor appointment, for tomorrow so fingers crossed
- contacted a family friend about an apartment

So let's just hope this all works out...
This is my new organization method:
Basically, I am keeping print outs of every month, with a to-do list on the side and tracking spending on the back, then I also have the budgets in there.
It's not as pretty as a planner and I don't know if it will work, but it fits sorta in my wallet and if it gets too messy I can re print and copy over so I like that.

Well this week is the start of tracking spending and Joes first doctors appointment, wish us luck!

Gotta go!

(sorry this was poorly written and crappy, my brain is a mush bucket of lists, I think that feeling out of controal for so long has made me go a little nutty also it might be to toxic mold infestation in my apartment...who knows)
